ANSI A14.3-2008 American National Standard for Ladders - Fixed - Safety Requirements
CSA Z259.2.1-98 Fall Arrestors, Vertical Lifelines, and Rails
TRAINING: It is the responsibility of users of this equipment to understand these instructions and be trained
in correct installation, use, and maintenance of this equipment. Users must be aware of the consequences of
improper installation or use of this equipment. This instruction manual is not a substitute for a training program.
Training must be provided on a periodic basis to ensure user prociency.
DESCRIPTION: The Railok 90 Rigid Rail Safety System (Figure 1) provides fall protection for persons climbing
xed ladders or similar climbing structures. The Railok 90 Rigid Rail Safety System is comprised of a Rigid Rail
system and a Shuttle. The Railok 90 Shuttle serves as a self-locking guided fall arrestor for a climber equipped
with a Full Body Harness. The Shuttle travels along the Railok 90 Rigid Rail as the climber ascends or descends the
ladder or similar structure. In the event of a fall the Shuttle locks onto the Rigid Rail to arrest the fall. The Shuttle
is congured with an Energy Absorber to dissipate fall energy and limit fall forces transferred to the body.
PURPOSE: The Railok 90 Shuttle and Railok 90 Rigid Rail Safety System are components in a Personal Fall Arrest
System (PFAS) for climbing ladders or similar structures where fall hazards exist. The PFAS would typically include a Full
Body Harness, Anchorage Connector (e.g., Carabiner), Railok 90 Shuttle, and Railok 90 Rigid Rail Safety System.
SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS: Plan your fall protection system and how it will be used prior to installation. Consider
all factors that will affect your safety before, during, and after a fall. Include the following considerations:
SYSTEM CAPACITY: The Railok 90 Rigid Rail Safety System is designed to be used by 1-4 users averaging
250 lbs (113 kg). Multiple users are required to climb sequentially so only a single user is on a rail span
between consecutive Mounting Brackets at any time.
STRUCTURE: The structure to which the Railok 90 Rigid Rail Safety System is installed must have a strength
capable of sustaining static loads applied in the directions permitted by the system of at least:
Non-Certied Anchorages: 5,000 lbs (22.2 kN)
Certied Anchorages: 2 times the Maximum Arresting Force
If there will be more than one user on the system, the above anchorage strengths should be multiplied by the
number of people attached to the system.
FALL CLEARANCE: Fall clearance below the feet of the user to the ground or other surface must be at least 7
feet (2 m).
NOTE: For the bottom 7 feet (2 m) of the Railok 90 Rigid Rail Safety System, the user may not be protected
against hitting the ground. Extra care should be taken when ascending or Descending the bottom section.
LOCKING SPEED: Avoid using the Railok 90 Shuttle in situations where the climbing path is obstructed.
Working in cramped spaces may not allow sufcient speed to lock the Shuttle when a fall occurs. A clear path
is required to ensure positive locking of the system.
ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS: Use of this equipment in areas with environmental hazards may require
additional precautions to reduce the possibility of injury to the user or damage to the equipment. Hazards may
include, but are not limited to: high heat caused by welding or metal cutting; caustic chemicals; seawater;
high voltage power lines; explosive or toxic gases; moving machinery; sharp edges.

COMPONENT COMPATIBILITY: The Railok 90 Rigid Rail Safety System is designed for use with the Railok 90
Shuttle and a Full Body Harness (see Body Support). The use of non-approved components and subsystems may
jeopardize compatibility of equipment, and could affect the safety and reliability of the complete system.
IMPORTANT: The Railok 90 Rigid Rail Safety System should not be used in combination with another fall
protection system or sub system, except if authorized by Capital Safety.
COMPATIBILITY OF CONNECTORS: The only connector used with the Railok 90 Rigid Rail Safety System should
be the Carabiner provided on the Railok 90 Shuttle or a replacements specied by Capital Safety.
BODY SUPPORT: A full body harness meeting the requirements of ANSI Z359.1 must be used with the Railok 90
Rigid Rail Safety System. The harness must have a frontal connection suitable for frontal fall arrest when ladder climbing
(See Parts Table SH). The harness connection point must be above the users center of gravity. A body belt is not
authorized for use with the Railok 90 system. If a fall occurs when using a body belt it may cause unintentional release
and possible suffocation because of improper body support. Substitutions of equipment or system components must not
be made without the written consent of Capital Safety.
RAILOK 90 SHUTTLE: Only the Railok 90 Shuttle should be used as the mobile fall arrest component of the Railok 90
Rigid Rail Safety System. A Top Rail Gate (SRG-T/LRG-T) and Bottom Rail Gates (SRG-B or LRG-B) must be present to
prevent the Shuttle from traveling off the ends of the Rail assembly. The distance between the Shuttle and the frontal
connection on the Full Body Harness is limited by the Shuttles Energy Absorber and attached Carabiner. Never add
additional Connectors or Lanyards that may increase this distance.
INSTALLATION: Figure 1 illustrates Ladder (left) and Tower (right) installations of the Railok 90 Rigid Rail Safety
System. For the Ladder system, Standard Rail (SR) sections are attached to an existing ladder and the existing
ladder rungs are used for climbing. For the Tower System, Ladder Rail (LR) sections, with bolt-on Rungs (LRR) for
climbing, are attached to existing structure (angle iron, pipe, etc.). Plan your installation to minimize the amount
of time working at height and improve safety. Considerations should include the following:
COMPONENTS: Figure 1 and the ensuing Parts Tables illustrate the available components that are used to
construct the Railok 90 Rigid Rail Safety System. Components used will vary with the specic application.
Basic component types are as follows:
Rails: Standard Rails (SR) and Ladder Rails (LR) are available in varied lengths. Standard Rails should be used in
applications were the Rigid Rail Safety System is installed on an existing ladder. Ladder Rails are equipped with bolt-
on Ladder Rail Rungs (LRR) and should be used on applications without an existing ladder. To facilitate installation, Rail
Rungs should be assembled to Ladder Rails on the ground prior to installing Rail sections.
Brackets: A variety of Brackets are available for attaching the Rail sections to Ladders (LRB, FRB), Angle Iron (AIB),
and Pipe (SPB, LPB). The parts tables at the beginning of the manual illustrate Rail attachment with the various Bracket
types. Intermediate Brackets should be within 1 ft (30 cm) below each Rail Clamp splice. The span between consecutive
brackets should not exceed 60 in. (1.5 m).
Rail Clamps: Rail Clamps (RC) are used to splice together rail sections (see Parts Table RC). Pins on the Rail Clamp insert through
holes at each end of the Rail to join the Rail sections. M16 fasteners squeeze the Rail Clamp halves together to secure it on the Rail
ends.
Rail Gates: By design, the Railok 90 Shuttle (SH) can not be attached to or removed from the Rail at intermediate
locations on the Rigid Rail Safety System. Rail Gates on each end of the Rigid Rail Safety System allow attachment of
the Railok 90 Shuttle, but prevent the Shuttle from traveling off the ends of the Rail assembly (see Parts Table SH). Top
and Bottom Standard Rail Gates (SRG) and Ladder Rail Gates (LRG) are available for Standard Rail and Ladder Rail
systems.
FASTENER TORQUE REQUIREMENTS: When installing the Railok 90 Rigid Rail Safety System, fasteners on
the various components should be tightened to the torque values indicated in their respective Parts Table.
WARNING: Use extreme caution when installing the Railok 90 Rigid Rail Safety System. Wear personal
protective equipment including safety glasses and steel-toed shoes. Always utilize a Fall Arrest System
comprised of a Full Body Harness and Self-Retracting Lifeline (SRL) or Energy Absorbing Lanyard when working
at height. The Fall Arrest System should be connected to appropriate anchorage. DO NOT connect the Fall
Arrest System to the partially installed Railok 90 system. Use caution when working near electrical power lines.
Railok 90 Rails are conductive.
Figure 1 illustrates installed Railok 90 Ladder and Tower Rigid Rail Safety Systems. While components vary, installation
procedures for installing the Railok 90 Rigid Rail Safety System are similar for both applications. When installing the
Rigid Rail Safety System, it is recommended that the Rail sections be installed on the structure starting from the top end
of the structure. Basic steps for installing the Rigid Rail Safety System are as follows:
17
Step 1. Position and mount Brackets (Ladder: LRB, FRB/Tower: AIB, SPB,LPB) for attaching the top
Rail section: The span between consecutive brackets on the Rigid Rail Safety System should not exceed
60 in. (1.5 m). The Parts Tables at the beginning of this instruction illustrate installation of the various
Bracket types. Position and loosely mount as many brackets as are needed to attach the Rail section.
Step 2. Secure the top Rail section (Ladder: SR/Tower: LR) in the Brackets: Position the Rail between
the clamp halves on the Bracket. Tighten the M16 fastener and Jam Nut on each clamp to the torque
values identied in the Bracket’s respective Parts Table. Reposition the Brackets as needed for proper
Rail alignment and tighten remaining fasteners to the torques values identied in the Parts Table.
Step 3. Attach the Top Rail Gate (Ladder: SRG-T/Tower: LRG-T): Parts Tables SRG and LRG illustrate
installation of the Rail Gates on the Rigid Rail Safety System. Position the Top Rail Gate clamp halves
over the top end of the Rail and tighten the M16 fastener and Jam Nut to the torque values identied in
respective Parts Table. When properly positioned, the arrow on the Rail Gate should be pointing upward.
Step 4. Position and mount Brackets (Ladder: LRB, FRB/Tower: AIB, SPB,LPB) for attaching the next
Rail section: The span between consecutive brackets on the Rigid Rail Safety System should not exceed
60 in. (1.5 m). Position and loosely mount as many brackets as are needed to attach the Rail section.
Step 5. Secure the next Rail section (Ladder: SR/Tower: LR) in the Brackets: Position the Rail between
the clamp halves on the Bracket. Tighten the M16 fastener and Jam Nut on each clamp to the torque
values identied in the Bracket’s respective Parts Table. Reposition the Brackets as needed for proper
Rail alignment and tighten remaining fasteners to the torques values identied in the Parts Table.
Step 6. Splice consecutive Rail sections together with a Rail Clamp (RC): Parts Table RC illustrates
installation of the Rail Clamp. Install the Rail Clamp on adjoining Rail ends as follows:
Disassemble the Rail Clamp halves.A.
Position the pinned Rail Clamp half on the adjoining Rail ends with the pins inserted through the B.
holes on the Rail ends.
Position the remaining Rail Clamp halve on the pins extruding through the Rail ends.C.
Install M16 fasteners and Jam Nuts and tighten to the torque values identied in Parts Table RC.D.
Step 7. Continue mounting and splicing consecutive Rail sections up to the bottom Rail section:
Repeat Steps 4 through 6 to mount and splice consecutive Rail sections.
Step 8. Position and mount Brackets (Ladder: LRB, FRB/Tower: AIB, SPB,LPB) for attaching the
bottom Rail section: The span between consecutive brackets on the Rigid Rail Safety System should
not exceed 60 in. (1.5 m). Position and loosely mount as many brackets as are needed to attach the Rail
section.
Step 9. Secure the bottom Rail section (Ladder: SR/Tower: LR) in the Brackets: Position the Rail
between the clamp halves on the Bracket. Tighten the M16 fastener and Jam Nut on each clamp to the
torque values identied in the Bracket’s respective Parts Table. Reposition the Brackets as needed for
proper Rail alignment and tighten remaining fasteners to the torques values identied in the Parts Table.
Step 10. Splice together the adjoining ends of the bottom Rail section and the previous Rail section:
Repeat Step 6 to install a Rail Clamp (RC) on the adjoining Rail ends.
Step 11. Attach the Bottom Rail Gate (Ladder: SRG-B/Tower: LRG-B): Parts Table SRG and LRG illustrate
installation of the Rail Gates on the Rigid Rail Safety System. Position the Bottom Rail Gate clamp halves
over the bottom end of the Rail and tighten the M16 fastener and Jam Nut to the torque values identied
in in the respective Parts Table. When properly positioned, the arrow on the Rail Gate should be pointing
upward.

OPERATION: General procedures for using the Railok 90 Rigid Rail Safety System are as follows:
WARNING: Before each use, carefully inspect the Railok 90 Rigid Rail Safety System per instructions in the
Inspection Schedule (Table 1).
Step 1. Install the Railok 90 Shuttle on the Railok 90 Rigid Rail Safety System: The Railok 90 Shuttle
can not be attached or removed at intermediate locations on the Rigid Rail Safety System. Rail Gates
on each end of the Rigid Rail Safety System allow attachment of the Railok 90 Shuttle, but prevent the
Shuttle from traveling off the ends of the Rail assembly (see Parts Tables SRG and LRG). The Shuttle is
designed to travel freely up the Rail, but can not travel down the Rail without lifting up on the Energy
Absorber and Pivot Arm. Parts Table SH illustrates installation of the Shuttle on the Rigid Rail:
To Install the Shuttle from the bottom end of the Rail:A. Slide the Shuttle upward on the bottom
end of the Rail. The Bottom Rail Gate (SRG-B/LRG-B) will open automatically as the Shuttle is
pushed upward through the gate.
To Install the Shuttle from the top end of the Rail:B. Lift up on the Energy Absorber to pivot the
Pivot Arm upward and then slide the Shuttle downward on the top end of the Rail. The Top Rail Gate
(SRG-T/LRG-T) will automatically open as the Shuttle is pushed downward through the gate.
NOTE: The Railok 90 Shuttle must be attached on the Rigid Rail with the arrows on the Shuttle
Labels pointing up. For additional details regarding installation and operation of the Shuttle, see the
“Railok 90 Rigid Rail Safety System Shuttle Instruction” (5903086).
Step 2. Don a Full Body Harness: Don and adjust the Full Body Harness per the manufacturer’s instructions.
Step 3. Connect the Railok 90 Shuttle to the Full Body Harness: Connect the Carabiner on the Railok 90
Shuttle to the Front Chest D-Ring on the Full Body Harness (see Parts Table SH). Be sure the gate on
the Carabiner is fully closed and locked.
IMPORTANT: The distance between the Railok 90 Shuttle and the frontal connection on the Full Body
Harness is limited by the Shuttle’s Energy Absorber and attached Carabiner. Never add additional
Connectors or Lanyards that may increase this distance.
Step 4. Ascending and Descend the structure in the following manner:
Ascent:A. To ascend, climb up normally on the Ladder or Ladder Rail Rungs at a steady rate. The
Railok 90 Shuttle will follow along on the Rail.
Descent:B. To descend, climb normally down the Ladder or Ladder Rail Rungs at a steady rate. The
Railok 90 Shuttle will follow along on the Rail. If the Shuttle locks on the Rail, move upward slightly
to release the Shuttle and then continue descending.
REST PLATFORM INSTALLATION & OPERATION: A Rest Platform (RP) can be installed on the Railok 90
Rigid Rail Safety System where added surface area is needed for rest or work (see Parts Table RP):
Installation:• The Rest Platform attaches to the structure with two Mounting Brackets with the Rail Clamps
removed (as illustrated in Parts Table RP). For each Rail Bracket and Rest Platform Mounting Bracket:
Assemble the Rest Platform as shown in Parts Table RP. Torque all fasteners to the indicated values.1.
Remove the appropriate M16 fasteners and Rail Clamp from the Rail Bracket.2.
Remove the M16 bolts from the Rest Platform Mounting Brackets.3.
Align the open hole on the Rail Bracket with the hole in the Rest Platform Mounting Bracket and insert the 4.
M16 bolt supplied with the Rest Platform.
Torque M16 Hex Nuts and Jam Nuts to the torque values identied in Parts Table RP.5.
Operation:• The hinged Rest Platform Floor can be locked in the upright position when the Rest Platform is not
in use (as illustrated in Parts Table RP):
To Lock the Rest Platform Floor in the Upright Position:1. Swing the Floor upward until it contacts the
Rest Arm. Rotate the Locking Latch counter-clockwise to secure the Floor in the upright position.
To Unlock and Position the Rest Platform Floor for Use:2. Rotate the Locking Latch clockwise and then
swing the Floor downward until it rests on the Rest Platform Base.
19
ANTI-CLIMB DOOR INSTALLATION & OPERATION: An Anti-Climb Door (ACD) can be installed on the
Railok 90 Rigid Rail Safety System and Pad Locked shut to prevent unauthorized climbing (See Parts Table ACD).
Installation:• The Anti-Climb Door attaches to the structure with three Mounting Brackets with the Rail
Clamps removed (as illustrated in Parts Table ACD):
Loosely attach three Rail Brackets, 3 ft. (91.4 cm) apart, to the ladder/structure at the approximate 1.
location where the Anti-Climb Door should block access to the structure and Railok 90 Rail.
Remove Rail Clamps and associated fasteners from the clamp end of the Rail Brackets.2.
Attach an L-Bracket to the clamp end of each Rail Bracket with a 1-1/2 in. Bolt, two Fender Washers, a 3.
Lock Washer, and a Nut.
Attach the three V-Brackets to the Door with the provided 1 in. Carriage Bolts using the pre-drilled 4.
mounting holes. Brackets should be space approximately 3 ft. (91.4 cm) apart.
Lift the Door into place on the ladder/structure so the V-Brackets on the door align with the L-Brackets on 5.
the ladder/structure.
Starting from the top of the door, secure each V-Bracket to it’s adjoining L-Bracket with the provided 6.
fasteners (1-1/2 in. Bolts, Lock Washers, and Nuts).
NOTE: The Rail Brackets may need to be moved up or down on the ladder/structure for proper vertical
alignment of V-Brackets and L-Brackets. The Anit-Climb Door should surround the ladder/structure
when closed. There are multiple holes in the V-Brackets and L-Brackets to allow horizontal positioning
of the door.
Once the door is positioned properly on the ladder/structure, tighten the fasteners that secure the Rail 7.
Brackets to the ladder/structure.
Align and secure the Door Lock Bracket assembly to two Ladder Rungs so the attached U-Bolt protrudes 8.
through either of the vertical slots in the door face when the door is closed. For proper horizontal
adjustment, slide the Door Lock Mounting Plates left or right on the Ladder Rung. For proper vertical
adjustment, reposition the U-Bolt in different holes in the Door Lock Bracket.
Operation:• To prevent unauthorized use of the Railok 90 Rigid Rail Safety System, swing the Anti-Climb Door
fully closed and lock a Pad Lock through the U-Bolt extending through the door face.
